    If you’ve ever suffered from an upper respiratory infection, sinus infection, or UTI it can be hell, and it can become extremely serious. But what happens when the antibiotic your doctor prescribes solves one problem while causing another?
    There’s one particular antibiotic that’s commonly prescribed for these conditions and it’s been directly linked to causing severe peripheral neuropathy. It’s also considered to be the most dangerous antibiotic for the nervous system.
    Today, I’ll reveal the class of antibiotics that are considered to be the Deadliest Antibiotics on the market.
    Antibiotics are powerful drugs that help our bodies combat bacterial infections. When used appropriately, they can quickly and effectively eliminate infections that may become serious and allow us to feel better in a matter of days
    We often take antibiotics prescribed by our doctors without questioning the risk associated with that medication because Afterall your doctor wouldn’t prescribe it if it wasn’t absolutely necessary, right? Well, it’s no secret that antibiotics are the most overprescribed and misused drugs which has led to a growing problem with antibiotic resistance bacteria.
    In today’s video, we’ cover 3 parts:
    Part 1 : We’ll reveal the Deadliest Antibiotics on the market.
    Part 2: What makes this Antibiotic so dangerous.
    Part 3: How to Avoid this Antibiotic.
    There’s one class of antibiotics that is so destructive to the peripheral nerves and other systems of the body that the FDA has issued severe warnings urging doctor’s to only use them in life threatening situations.

I developed ringing in my ears due to severe sinus and ear infections. I lost my job, because I thought it was something pretty serious. I lost my parents last summer of July 2022 which caused me a lot of stress. I feel a lot better now after six months. The tinnitus is starting to go away.

    As an EDS patient i was prescribed the usual antibiotic duo for diverticulitis and it affected me so badly that my entire digestive system was on fire and intense pain from top to bottom. I thought i was a goner. Several years later, another bout of diverticulitis and i told the doctor i couldn't take those so he gave me levaquin. Same results. Then i found out EDS patients should not take fluoroquinolones. Now if i feel a twinge of pain that indicates an impending bout of diverticulitis I take berberine or golden seal and more Vitamin C several days. I also use wet heat over the area several times a day. Using this method i have not had to see the doc or take prescription antibiotics for 6 years now.

    I was prescribed Ciprofloxacin for an upper respiratory infection 10 years ago, after five doses I developed severe burning and tearing pain in my shoulders and upper arm. The doctor stopped the medication and prescribed a different one. About a year later I had a doctor prescribe Levofloxin prior to surgery, on the second dose, the pain returned in my upper arms and shoulder, only worse than it had with the Cipro. This pain has never left and frequently intensifies without any identifiable cause. This pain normally wakes me up a couple times a night. I now have the fluoroquinolones listed as an allergy on my charts at all of my doctors' offices but have twice stopped either a prescription or a prophylactic dose prior to an in office procedure.

      I am so sorry that you had to experience this. You are absolutely correct, that people have no idea. There have been so many lawsuits filed and one against the pharmaceutical companies that make fluoroquinolones. Big Pharma has had to pay out several hundreds of millions of dollars (the last case I heard was a 400 million dollar settlement), however, they don't care when they're making BILLIONS off of these drugs. I truly hope this video brings much-needed awareness. Blessings.

    I was given Cipro 5 times for UTI's over a period of 15 years. In 2015 I was given my 5th and final course of double strength Cipro (500mg) twice daily. On day 5 of the antibiotic, out of the blue, I developed body wide burning skin, scalp to feet, that has never gone away. Now I have to always wear soft jersey knit clothing that does not bind any of my skin. My skin always feels like someone has rubbed it raw with sandpaper. Within a week I developed numb feet and fingers (diagnosed in 2019 as PN by EMG) Two months later I tore a tendon in my right knee during my exercise class. It took two years for that to heal. I have painful ligament damage in my shoulders that never heals. Suddenly I became extremely reactive to any drug that contains fluoride ions, even fluoride toothpaste! When my body encounters fluoride I suffer extreme body wide paresthesia which takes weeks to settle down. I am now 63. It has been 8 years with no relief no matter what treatments I have tried. Statistics show 87% of people who develop peripheral neuropathy from fluoroquinolone antibiotics
    recover, but 13% don't. I am part of that 13% and it has been hard to accept as it has changed my life forever.

I suffer from tendonitis, peripheral neuropathy, central nervous system issues, twitching, pain from head to toe, blisters on my body and in my mouth. To add insult to injury, the same medical group injected me with Prednisolone 5x concurrently. This started on 5/26/23 to 6/1/23, until present.

    In the past I was given many prescriptions for Levoquin due to frequent sinus infections, bronchitis etc. After a while I noticed pain and weakness in my forearm radiating to my hand to where I had to wear a wrist brace. Then the other arm had the same thing. At first I thought it was job related but I had never had problems like those before. I did some research and saw the black box warnings and from then on said I was allergic to Fluroquinilones and said my son is also. The pain and weakness in my arms returned to normal after several months off the antibiotic. HOWEVER, ten plus years later I have ALL kinds of nerve problems and they are concerned I may have a serious condition. I have already been diagnosed with Non-diabetic pheripherial neuropathy.

      Hi Marjorie. You're so welcome. This topic is such an important one because the average doctor isn't even aware of this info. Last year my brother went into the hospital with an infected abscess which they wanted to treat with Fluoroquinolones and I would not allow it. The internal medicine doctor said to me, "But these antibiotics are the absolute best!" and she was being very sincere. Needless to say, I had a very long and informative conversation with her that floored her. Thanks so much for watching and for your feedback. Blessings.

    I wish I had known this and other things I have learned over the years since my dad passed away in 2019. He ended up in the hospital 5 times in 4 months... before he passed away 3 months later. I blame the idiots at the nursing home he was at. I wish I could have moved him, but other nursing homes in our area were just as bad, if not worse. He was given a lot of antibiotics and other medications lfor different infections from 2017 to 2019... I believe he had a problem with cipro, I wish I could have done more to help him, but I didn't know then what I know now about prescription medications. I have come off of 6 of 10 of my medications over the last couple of years, and will be coming off of 1 more soon, gabapentin, but I have to be weened off of that one. I really appreciate these videos, I will be sharing them with people I know! In regard to me wanting to be weened off of gabapentin, I am wondering if there is a natural alternative, and can I take it while being weened off of the gabapentin? On a different channel, Dr. Allen Mandell recommends Alpha Lepoic Acid, what are your thoughts and possible recommendations on that? Thanks.... 😊

I now put it on my record as being allergic to them. What is your opinion on ceftin. I am now taking benfotiamine ( vit B1). To counteract the damage. Turns out I am having diverticulitis problems. The problem is net to my bladder. Any helpful hints? The Dr.s didn’t listen until I said I am allergic.

    This is very beneficial information for most patients-- if they pay full attention. Cipro, for example, is widely prescribed in the belief it carries little danger, despite the FDA warning.

      I had 2 serious infections in my legs over the last few years. I was refusing antibiotics, but the weeping sores got worse and my leg became swollen. Doctor at the hospital was angry, said I was irresponsible nit to have come earlier, gave me Cipro, which worked very quickly. Antibiotics mess with my gut biome, resulting in depression. I gotta be very ill before I take antibiotics.

      I will not take Cipro or have my husband take it. But what about the effects of the Effexor and Aldactone? I’m scared I take them daily. I don’t want to end up getting worse not better.

I’m not on antibiotics a lot but I was told I have a genetic neuromuscular issue which messes with your peripheral nerves it’s called HNPP another form of charcoal Marie tooth.

I can't imagine living the rest of my life in this constant pain. Do you have any suggestions on how to reverse these horrible side effects?? Thanks for any suggestions.

    • @jantrevino9345
      @jantrevino9345 Před rokem +3

      Levofloxcine 500 mg. Cefuroxime 250mg. Sulfamethoxazole. Cephalexin 500mg. Nitrofurantoin 100. After a visit with a gynecologist and a urologist, it was determined that atrophy was the cause. Was prescribed a vaginal estrogen cream and the UTi's stopped. If this was discovered before, the UTi's could have been prevented and all the antibiotics would have been unnecessary.

      Yes that is one of the worst antibiotics but the doctor is wrong on this topic. The most dangerous antibiotic on the market is by far Clindamycin. Once you take it you will have GI issues the rest of your life.

Scary. not taken any yet and just going to live with the pain.

    I was given CIPROfloxacin for a simple UTI in 2016 and I've been dealing with horrible neuropathy ever since. I don't know what to do. My doc's don't believe what I'm saying......and the pain is awful. The first Cipro pill I took, I didn't feel right. It felt like I was "burning" from the inside out. But, because I had the same doctor for 25 years, I assumed my doctor would know how to treat my issues and I trusted her. If I could get that day back, I would NEVER have taken these pills. As it is, I only took a total of 5 pills before I stopped on my own. Any help would be greatly appreciated......I want my life back.
